My Weatherlink software has been the most dependable part of my weather equipment and software. It has been chugging along uploading to WL, CWOP and WU without complaint. Until recently. About once a week it stops uploading and I find Weatherlink is dead and says the dreaded "Not responding". It happened this morning again at 6:00 am (made me late for work
). I checked Weatherlink from my laptop and saw its last upload was 5:59. When this happens I have to reboot the computer to get things back to normal again. Simply ending and restarting the program will not do it.
After getting home today, and installing 12 new Windows updates, I checked the events logs on the weather computer. Interestingly I found 4 that happened at 5:59:58, 6:00:04, 6:00:08 and 6:00:13 named "DNS Client Events". Described as "Name resolution for the name wpad.Belkin timed out after none of the configured DNS servers responded." Before I start researching this online I thought I'd post my issue to see if anyone knows what this is all about.
Charter recently had a major problem with their DNS servers. It seems fixed now but looking through the log this event has happened a lot lately. My router is setup as "Automatic from ISP" for DNS servers.
Thanks, Dan.
